Description The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007 repeal the CDM Regulations 1994 and the Construction (Health, Safety and Welfare)
Regulations 1996; containing all the legal duties regarding the design and management of a construction project and the safe operating
standards expected on a construction site.
CDM 2007: Questions and Answers by Pat Perry is a pragmatic, common-sense approach to interpreting
the many queries which will inevitably arise from the new Regulations, no matter how simplified they purport to be.
The author details
practical solutions to a wide range of legal compliance issues and explores answers which go beyond the rather limited information contained
in the Approved Code of Practice which supports the Regulations.
The various duty holders, project stages and safety issues are dealt
with in different chapters and the book can be used for detailed reference or for a quick refresher on specific subjects.
Audience
Everyone involved in the design and management of commercial construction projects such as clients (person or company who is involved
in a business, trade or undertaking for whom a construction project is carried out), designers (those who have some input into design
issues in respect of a project) and contractors (someone who either undertakes or manages construction work).
